Here comes the pain! After months of teasing us with a “big name” and lots of rumors, THQ has finally revealed former UFC Champion and former 3-time WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar for WWE ’12.
THQ has stated that Lesnar will be unlockable through the WWE Universe mode in the game and will have his signature moveset, including his F5 finisher. His likeness in the game will reflect his current look with more tattoos than he had during his WWE run from 2002 to 2004. I’m very excited for this announcement and can’t wait to put a hurtin’ on WWE’s poster boy, John Cena.
It looks as thought they’ve reused much of his character model from UFC Undisputed 2010 and added his later WWE attire with the skull on the back.
As for whether he would one day return to the WWE:
I don’t know if Mr. McMahon and I could come to the right circumstances. If it was good for me and good for him I think that we could do something. At the end of the day, my life, my character and my profession – I take them very seriously. At the end of the day, if it doesn’t help me or my family out, and it doesn’t make sense for me to do, then I don’t do it. Everything would have to fall in the right place, but would I consider it? Absolutely.
